In the wake of coordinated terror attacks that left at least 120 dead in Paris late Friday and early Saturday, people across the globe took to social media to express support for the victims of the carnage.

Many tagged their messages with #JeSuisParis, a hashtag similar to the #JeSuisCharlie one used after the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris in January.

Standing in solidarity with our French friends. My thoughts and prayers are with all affected by this tragedy. #PorteOuverte #jesuisparis— Ross Morrison (@RMorrisonGBWR) November 14, 2015

Stop. Get off Twitter. Turn off your device. Hug a loved one. Pray for those who lost their loved ones. #jesuisparis

Countless celebrities have tweeted their support for the victims as well, some using #Pray4Paris, which at one point was trending on Twitter, and #Prayers4Paris.

Thinking of everyone in Paris ... Police in #Paris are urging people to remain indoors right now. If you are safe, stay where you are.
